The metal was needed though. To quote a random reddit user, "My grandfather went through basic with a wood pole instead of a rifle"

Also since they cut track maintaince the trains had huge trouble making over the railroad by the end

Like to get a Zephyr and M10000 someday. I own the Varney Aerotrain with the desirable Kemtron upgrades.

| I own the 3 of the Varney Aerotrain's, one with Kemtron upgrades and the other two without. I also put Bowser shells on two of them (PPR & NYC), the look sweet.

Woah, dude! That's awesome! If there's any of those I'd want to eventually get, it'd be the Zephyr set.
